Hi.

Welcome to the DIY family. Congratulations on the good job.

Replaced the control board and the washer worked! I was simple install except trying to disengage two of the retaining clips to remove the harness (ended up breaking the old retaining clips -- thankfully the new board has the locking clip). On another note, I ordered the part Thursday afternoon using standard delivery (was told I would receive it Monday) and I was pleasantly surprised to receive it Friday -- just one day!

I wish there would have been a cheaper fix, but thanks for the help!:)

To check the control board :

Get an access to the board. Locate the two plugs - 6 and 11 pins.
With washer plugged in use the multimeter to check for 120VAC between the RED pin1 of the 6 pin plug and WHITE pin 4 of the 11 pin plug.
If there is no correct voltage - replace the control board

Thank you for the helpful reply Simon. I don't have a multimeter to check the voltage nor do I know how to use one even if I did have one. All I have is a circuit tester with the alligator clip on one end and the "pen" with a light on the other. Is there any kind of testing I can do with that? Also, are there any other parks (hopefuly cheaper :) ) that could be bad? And if so, how do I test them? At this point, I'll probably just buy a new control board because if the machine still doesn't work, I can return it for a refund. >

I recently had a power surge when I started my washer. Turns out the power supply from the power company had come loose. Now the washer doesn't work. I jumped the lid switch but the washer still did't work. I've been looking for a fuse or in-line fuse link but can't find one. According to your parts department, there is no fuse for my model and that I need to replace the control panel. I'm hesitant of buying one if because I'm not sure it will fix the problem. Is this my only option? Thanks.
